New York City Wine and Food Festival: Ticket Giveaway, 'Breakfast of Champions'
Frappe with Greek yogurt and a swirl of honey. Still dreaming of my honeymoon...
Serious Heat: Silky, Spicy Mole Sauce
The one time I had mole sauce I loved it. I haven't found a version since that's been as good so I'm excited to try this out.

Dinner Tonight: Pasta with Greens and Beans
Would any sort of bean in the pod do? I'm not sure if I've seen cranberry beans around.

Win Tickets to an NYC Advance Screening of 'Julie and Julia'
The Joy of Cooking never fails me!
Cook the Book: 'The Barcelona Cookbook'
That would have to be a month ago when we stopped in Barcelona on our honeymoon. Ate some great tapas and had a fabulous time in Barcelona.
Cook the Book: 'Rustic Fruit Desserts'
Anything with blueberries. And then preferably with a scoop of ice cream on top.
Dinner Tonight: Chicken and Pineapple Stir-Fry
Looks delicious! And I actually just got a wok for a wedding gift so this recipe should put it to good use.
Sugar Rush: Toasted Marshmallow Milkshake from Stand
My boyfriend loves this milkshake. He's said that would definitely be one of his last meals if he was on death row. I've never had a full one myself but the sips I've sneaked of his have been very tasty. The best is when you slurp out an actual piece of marshmallow.
Keste Pizza & Vino: What You Can Expect
Looks good! I'm excited also that the first restaurant he founded was in Ridgewood, NJ, only a few minutes from where I grew up.
Cook the Book: 'Kneadlessly Simple'
Banana bread. I found a healthier recipe that tastes just like the one my Mom makes, just minus the oil. Yum.
Hanci Turkish Cuisine, a Much Needed Turkish Restaurant in New York
I love Turkish food. Though I try not to mention that too much around the Greek side of my family...
Cook the Book: 'Baking Unplugged'
When I was 9 or so I attempted to make peanut butter cookies. I mixed up the baking powder with baking soda and ended up with something that didn't resemble a cookie at all. Into the trash they went...
Cook the Book: 'The New Mediterranean Diet Cookbook'
I'd have to say the tyropitas we make for the holidays. How can you go wrong with filo dough stuffed with feta?
Served: My First Restaurant Job
That's the spot where The Melting Pot currently is, right? It's funny - that's on the opposite end of the spectrum in terms of a high-end, special occasion sort of place, but it's not packing them in either. Perhaps the location is cursed...or it could just be that you have to try a bit harder when your restaurant is off the main drag.
Cook the Book: 'Simple Italian Snacks'
Has to be cheese and crackers. Boring, but everyone loves it.
Cook the Book: 'Baked, New Frontiers in Baking'
Does a Blizzard from Dairy Queen count? How about a banana split or ice cream cake from Carvel? Obviously ice cream is my weakness.
Cook the Book: 'Martha Stewart's Cooking School'
I believe it's chocolate gingersnaps. It's a must when Christmas rolls around.
Cook the Book: 'The Sweeter Side of Amy's Bread'
My great-grandmother's Brown Edge cookies. They're the simplest cookies in the world to make and they taste just of butter and sugar, a great combo.
Serious Eats City Guide: Washington, D.C.
Thanks for this list. I'm heading to D.C. in November so I'm looking forward to checking some of these spots out. It's especially vital to know what the best pizza places are - there's nothing worse than bad pizza!
John's Pizzeria in Jersey City, New Jersey
I live in Hoboken, another place in NJ that people never realize is so close to the city. Here we have an offshoot of Grimaldi's. Basically just like the better known version in Brooklyn only without the long, long lines. But if you want really good pizza I suggest hopping on the PATH and coming over here to Napoli's. That's my favorite pizza in town. It tastes fresh, the sauce is excellent and they don't overdo it on the cheese.
Dim Sum Favorites at Jing Fong in Chinatown
I've never had dim sum. I always thought my options would be limited since I was a vegetarian up until last month. But now that I'm a full-fledged omnivore I'm thinking I'll have to check this out.
Kashkaval Is All About Dipping Things Into Other Things
It really depends on the day, I think. One time we took my bf's parents there and the fondue was a disaster. It never melted properly and was just a big, gloopy mess. But that was the only time we had a problem like that. Of course now they question why we still go there...
Kashkaval Is All About Dipping Things Into Other Things
This is one of my favorite places in the city. It gets crazy on the weekends but we usually just drink some wine while we wait for a table. You did fail to try one of my favorite appetizers, the olive tapenade. Make sure you order that next time - it's a must have. I'm actually taking my mom there tomorrow night. I hope we don't have to wait too long!
Eat It, Bravo
Project Runway did have a better rating among A18-49, that oh-so-coveted demo. Can you tell what my job involves? ;)
